Adrenal Cortical Adenoma Arising in a Girl with Congenital Adrenogenital Syndrome

GEORGE L. DAESCHNER M.D.

The following report concerns au adrenal cortical adenoma in a girl of 13 years in whom the diagnosis of virilizing adrenal hyperplasia was made shortly after birth. An explanation of the etiology of the tumor is suggested by the unusual clinical course.

Past History

A. A., a Caucasian infant was born September 8, 1950, to a 31-year-old mother. Birth weight was 8 lb 12 oz (3.8 kg) and the immediate neonatal course was uncomplicated. The house physician recorded the child as a male with hypospadias and discharged it at the age of 3 days without further studies. Eleven days later the infant began to have episodes of vomiting with mild diarrhea.
